Stats for nyc for first 6 months of the year 96% of victims of shootings are black or Hispanic .
89% of all murder victims are black of Hispanic , policies are working out great for minorities.
Compassion with order is a phrase a lot of these liberal city politicians need to consider .

The White House Press Secretary on Trump's push to reopen schools: "The science should not stand in the way of this."
if trump really wants the schools reopened he should just say I would prefer them to stay closed ,that would put the powers that be in a conundrum .

That's your opinion?

That the hesitancy and concerns about opening schools is all about Trump?

Not that he's being a f**king bellend, concerned only for how it affects him, as usual, regarding a legitimate and well founded concern?

Do you have kids?
yes I do and I would send them back tomorrow , 0 deaths in 0>17 year olds in California that's what the science is telling me . The damage to behavior , mental health and loss  of learning may be permanent. Of course people are concerned but if trump was smart he would throw them a curve ball every now and then.

Or he could behave like a president.

Um, when liberals raise concerns about the problems faced by minorities, the right brands us as "Social Justice Warriors" or SJWs as if it's some sort of label of mockery.

When conservatives raise "concerns" about the problems faced by minorities it's always to have a dig at left-leaning politicians or to change the subject from some inconvenient topic. Your crocodile tears are noted. Come back to me when you're actually concerned about black or hispanic murder victims and not just using them as a stick to beat the left with.

One more time: Children can carry the virus and bring it home to vulnerable adults.

Quoth the CDC:

Limit time with other children
If children meet in groups, it can put everyone at risk. Children can pass this virus onto others who have an increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19.

Practice social distancing
The key to slowing the spread of COVID-19 is to limit contact as much as possible. While school is out, children should not have in-person playdates with children from other households. If children are playing outside their own homes, it is essential that they remain 6 feet from anyone who is not in their own household.

To help children maintain social connections while social distancing, help your children have supervised phone calls or video chats with their friends.

Clean hands often
Make sure children practice everyday preventive behaviors, such as washing their hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. This is especially important if you have been in a public place.

Change travel plans
Revise travel plans if they included non-essential travel.

If he could even behave like an aggressive wino or a dog having a shit on my front lawn or an aggressive wino having a shit on my front lawn, that would be a big, big improvement.

The saddest thing is that this changes absolutely nothing.
People who vote(d) for Trump, either openly don't care, or secretly don't care and will try and discredit the individual telling the story.

At this stage finding a 70 year old white guy who hasn't used either of those slurs would be damn near impossible

Remember what did Bill Clinton say to Ted Kennedy about Candidate Obama-

Option (c) normalise it.
My dad is 65 and white and he has never spoken about another human being in such a way. I know a lot of people of similar age and I know they don't speak like that.

Your assertion of damn near impossible, is therefore, incorrect

It'll firm up his base, they love the racism and the anti-Semitism.

Does your dad and these other 65 year olds live in the states or does they live in Ireland

What are their opinions on travellers? Would they welcome them to live beside him? Would they object if a halting site was built next to them? Would they socialize in a pub with them?

I know many people in both countries that are not racist
Is racism in the states more or less acceptable (or accepted) than Ireland? Not sure what you are trying to discern.

No idea about hypothetical situations regarding living arrangements, but they (we) have socialised in our local pub with members of the travelling community.
